Awww, thanks you guys!
Thanks so much to each and every one of you for the birthday wishes today — my MySpace inbox runneth over. :)
As today is a school night, there probably won’t be any major celebrating until the weekend. But how great is it that I get to watch an Office marathon and then top the evening off with John Krasinski on Conan? Now that’s a birthday gift. ;)
Thanks again, you guys are the best!
